RE: Hard Fork 19 Reminder (this Tuesday) + Steemit Needs Series: Please comment with your ideas to improve Steemit!! | E. 7 | June 15th, 2017 | Community Engagement | Archives to help Developers / Community.
Changing the submit story window to a more easy way, just like other social sites. Currently, it is hard for new comers to make a post not unless they are already expose with codes.
I think you have a good point. Users unfamiliar with html will have more difficulty formatting their posts to look better.
Despite the fact that I could once just write a webpage in notepad as a text doc (a long time ago=p) I haven't yet managed to get the markup bar working, and either don't format, or have to do as I did in the past and just write the html into the post.
It could be easier, perhaps templates, or modules, etc.., for folks with less html knowledge so their posts can be more valuable to our community.
It is, to me, the content of the ideas in the post, generally, that is of most value, rather than the formatting, but the formatting can impede that communication if it is an impediment by demanding more time and work than necessary.
The more time we must spend figgerin' out how to do it, the less time we can spend doin' it.
And everybody wants to spend as much time doin' it as possible.
Yes, you are right, the idea of the content is much better but we could not hide the fact that how we format the looks of our content helps a reader to get excited of our content.
I've always thought that something similar like this would be good -- as in when you open up the SUBMIT window - inside it a couple options / links auto open to give you the option for a more noob friendly version or option, etc.
